Your questions, answered
You want all the info before choosing the right trailer suspension for you. And we want to help.
If you need maximum ground clearance for off-roading, Axle-Less is the way to go. If you have more robust towing needs that don’t require more ground clearance, like landscape trailers or construction trailers, the Silent-Ride is your best option.
Axle-Less trailer suspensions are fully independent and do not require an axle, allowing for ultimate control of your rig. A torsion trailer suspension, on the other hand, is housed within an axle tube and can’t withstand the abuse and rigors of off-road and overland travel.
Our jounce and rebound springs are made from natural rubber, with all the unique characteristics that make our Aeon® springs a leader in towing and hauling.
The capacity rating represents one complete Axle-Less Suspension, i.e. both sides.
Yes. Some maintenance is required, such as greasing the pivot bushings and wheel bearings. For detailed maintenance information, refer to the maintenance notes included with the installation instructions.
To begin, you’ll need to make sure the frame is perfectly square. Additionally, some trailer frames require additional support, like an extension plate to allow bolts to be installed vertically. This would eliminate the use of a cross-member, allowing you to achieve maximum ground clearance.
